The monograph reconstructs the diversity of everyday practices of the women of Galicia from 1914, when the First World War began, to 1921, when the Riga Peace Treaty was concluded, which essentially ended the period of war and related conflicts for Ukrainians for national statehood, and after which the last men were able to return to their native homes from the front, captivity, and internment camps. The peculiarities of women's military and social activities, their place in the family and society are revealed; worldviews of women during the war, which included attitudes to life and death, patriotism and duty, time and space; the importance of the House in women's self-identification; models of family relations in the situation of separation; the formation of images of women and women's everyday life in contemporary fiction, folk art, works of art and photographs. There was no universal way for women to survive the war, they lived and experienced the war in very different ways. It is emphasized that women were an active factor in social processes.
